A celebration of British seasonal, artisan and farm produced cheeses from around the United Kingdom

All of our cheeses are hand selected from small, artisanal and farmhouse producers of fine cheeses from around the country.

We change the selection each month with the help of our cheese supplier, to ensure that there is always an interesting selection of

cheese types and flavours, including different milk types, cooked and raw cheeses and vegetarian.

Below is just a small example of some of the great British cheeses we serve at the House of Commons

BRITISH CHEESE COURSE £9.63

Stilton (Colston Bassett)

This is considered by many as the best Stilton and comes from one of only five

dairies authorised to produce PDO qualified Stilton within the three shires of

Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire. It is made with pasteurised

cow’s milk and is suitable for vegetarians.

Ragstone Goats Cheese

This is a young, medium fat soft cheese produced with unpasteurised Goats

milk and traditional rennet. It is produced by Charlie Whitehead of Neal’s Yard

Creamery in Herefordshire and has a beautiful lemony flavour, with a creamy

white rind.

Perl Las (V)

Translates in English to blue pearl, and is produced in traditional hundred year

old cast iron presses by Carwyn Adams at Caws Cenarth in Wales. It is a

creamy blue cheese with a slightly salty flavour, produced from pasteurised

cow’s milk that is suitable for vegetarians.

Celtic Promise (V)

John and Patrice Savage-Onstwedder moved from Holland to the Teifi

Farmhouse in Llandysul, mid Wales in 1982, and started making cheese using

unpasteurised cow’s milk, to traditional methods with locally sourced milk. The

cheese has a washed rind using different cheese cultures and cider, to produce

this organic cheese with its pungent aroma.

Isle of Mull Cheddar

This is made from Raw (un-pasteurised) cow’s milk with Vegetarian rennet, by

Rory Stone, in Tain, Ross shire, Scotland. It is produced traditionally the

matured for 3-6 months, to give its excellent flavour with strengthens with

aging.

Caboc (V)

This cheese dates from the Viking period and is very buttery, as the Vikings

considered butter as a cheese. It is produced with pasteurised cow’s milk and

vegetarian rennet, then rolled in pin head oats, it is eaten very young in cheese

terms at 3-4 weeks old.

Stinking Bishop (V)

This cheese takes its name from the wash of Perry (pear cider) that is made

from the Moorcroft pear, which has the nickname of Stinking Bishop. This

cheese is very aromatic with a rich powerful flavour and smooth texture. It is

made from pasteurised cow’s cheese with vegetarian rennet, by Charles Martell

and Sons Ltd in Gloucestershire.

Kirkhams Lancashire

Graham Kirkham is the sole remaining producer of traditional creamy

Lancashire cheese from Beesley Farm, Goosnargh in Lancashire. It is different

to other Lancashire cheeses as it is made with unpasteurised cow’s milk, is

cloth and butter bound and made from two day of curds, which produces a

light texture, with a gentle lactic, buttery flavour.

Wigmore (V)

Is made at Valley Maid Dairy, in Berkshire by Anne and Andy Wigmore.

It uses unpasteurised ewe’s milk and vegetarian rennet and produce a soft brie

style of cheese. It is a washed curd cheese, which reduces the acidity of the

cheese and gives it its semi soft texture.

Dorset Blue Vinny (V)

Made by Mike Davies at Woodbridge Farm, in Dorset, who is the last producer

of this traditional farmhouse cheese, it is made from unpasteurised milk from

his own herd of Friesian cow’s, with vegetarian rennet. It has a drier texture

than Stilton, with a full flavour, and blue veining, it is however lower in fat than

most cheeses as it uses skimmed milk in its production.

Cornish Yarg (V)

This cheese was first made by Mr Gray, who decided to call his cheese after his

surname spelt backwards! It is now produced by Lynher Dairies in Truro,

Cornwall, and is a mild semi hard cheese wrapped in nettle leaves. It is made

with pasteurised cow’s milk, and has a young, fresh and creamy flavour.

Miss Muffet (V)

This is a sweet continental style washed curd cheese, with a supple texture and

a nutty creamy flavour, and a unique pink/grey natural mould rind. It is ripened

for 4-6 weeks, is suitable for vegetarians, and made with pasteurised cow’s

milk, by Sue Proudfoot at Whalesborough cheeses, in Cornwall.

121 Roederer Brut Premier, 12% (V, S) £63.00

170 Pol Roger Brut Reserve, 12% (Vg, S) £66.00

Sir Winston Churchill’s love affair with Pol Roger is the thing of wine legend. “Champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced, the

imagination is equally stirred, the wits become more nimble.” So said Sir Winston Churchill, in praise of his favourite tipple. His penchant was Pol

Roger. And it was some penchant: he is reputed to have worked his way through 42,000 bottles of it over his life. What’s more he didn’t apparently

discover it until 1908, by which time he was 34. That equates to around two bottles per day!

SPARKLING

092 Prosecco Treviso Brut Spumante, Italy, 11% (V, S) £35.00

097 Hindleap Blanc de Blancs, England, 2013, 11.5% (Vg, S) £45.00

The Bluebell Vineyards were planted in 2005 with the desire to produce high quality English sparkling wines. The wines are named Hindleap as the

Hindleap Hill is just beyond the vineyards. Like Champagne, it is produced by the traditional method, re-fermented and aged on the lees in bottle. This

vibrant Blanc de Blancs uses the estate`s best Chardonnay grapes slowly matured to capture a fine mousse and crisp citrus palate preceded by aromas

of quince, brioche and elderflower.

England – “Prist ine local heroes”

098 Danebury Vineyards Madeleine Angevine, Hampshire, 11.5% (Vg, S) £28.00

The Danebury Estate is located on the paddocks of what was a famous nineteenth-century racehorse training yard and the first vines were planted in

1988. A beautifully elegant wine reminiscent of an English orchard, Danebury’s Madeleine Angevine is utterly charming. The nose shows delicate

aromas of white blossom, honeysuckle and pear whilst the flavours on the palate develop into notes of ripe quince and red apple. The texture is soft and

rounded, balancing well with the fresh acidity whilst the mineral, clean finish nods to the Hampshire chalky soils on which the grapes were grown.

France

Burgundy - “Chardonnay in all its intriguing styles ”

078 Chablis, Domaine du Colombier, 12.5% (Vg, S) £38.00

Guy Mothe built up the highly successful Domaine du Colombier by starting with a tiny holding and then acquiring small parcels of land that came up

for sale over the years. Today the domaine has 33 hectares of vineyards and is run by Guy`s son, Thierry. Fermented and aged in stainless steel to

preserve the wine’s crisp, citrus fruit and steely freshness, it is important to him that his Chablis be pure and mineral, not subjected to barrel aging

which would mask the fruit.

072 House of Commons White Burgundy, 13% (V, S) £33.00

065 Domaine Félines Jourdan, Picpoul de Pinet, 13% (S) £30.00

067 Domaine de Coudoulet, Viognier, 13.5% (Vg, S) £31.00

Try this wine when you can't afford Condrieu. In other words, this silky white wine gives you everything you want from a Viognier - without having to

sell an organ to afford the dizzying prices of the premium Condrieu. Under the recent guidance and production skills of Pierre-Andre Ournac, the

Domaine de Coudoulet estate has become highly acclaimed. Earning awards and a trophy at both the 2014 and 2015 Decanter World Wine Awards.

079 Dog Point Sauvignon Blanc, 13.5% (S) £41.00

In 2004 Ivan Sutherland and James Sealy decided to take the skills they’d learnt as viticulturalist and winemaker at Cloudy Bay and set up on their

own. They had a head start as Ivan had planted vineyards in Marlborough back in the 1970s. Using handpicked, low yield grapes, the wine is

meticulously made and hugely expressive of the Sauvignon varietal as well as of the terroir of the Wairau Valley. No stranger to awards, this is a white

to chill down and savour.

625 Brigitte et Daniel Chotard, Sancerre Rose, Loire, 13% (S) £38.00

There have been vignerons in the Chotard family since 1789, but it was in 1992 that Daniel Chotard resumed work at the domaine. In the vineyard he employs the principles of utilising organic products where and when possible and allowing grass to grow between the vines on the slopes. Their delicious rosé is the one wine from Domaine Chotard that’s raised exclusively in stainless steel. The aim is to capture the floral lift and red-berry crunch inherent in Pinot Noir grown on the pebbly limestone soil.

Mendoza

167 La Flor Malbec, Pulenta, 13.5% (V, S) £33.00

The Pulenta family has been making wine in Argentina since 1912, briefly after they arrived from Italy. The third generation, brothers Hugo and

Eduardo, started Pulenta Estate in 2002 to produce small lots of exceptional wines from two pioneering vineyards their father Antonio planted in the

early 80’s and 90’s. The brothers' philosophy is expressed thus: "Making a great wine is an act of generosity, considering always the one who will taste

it.”

104 Chateau Labadie, Medoc, 13.5% (S) £39.00

Part of the original classification of Crus Bourgeois in 1932, it has been owned by the Bibey family since 1970. It is now managed by the dynamic young

winemaker, Jerome Bibey. Passionate about his work, he employs only sustainable agriculture practices in the vineyard. Yields at Labadie are

restricted, resulting in wines of impressive concentration, which age exceptionally well. Still, with its rounded tannins and refreshing acidity, this is

difficult to resist now.

The Perrin family, of Chateau de Beaucastel fame, began their ‘La Famille Perrin’ business in 1997. Established by François Perrin and his brother Jean-

Pierre, Pierre's father, now run by Pierre since 1999. They produce a range of wines that express the richness of the Southern Rhone Valley. Using the

same expertise and the passion as with Chateau de Beaucastel, the family prides itself in bringing out the true character of each vineyard plot. Classic

Côtes du Rhône. Fruity and fleshy with beautiful tannins, it’s a great everyday wine.

633 Lote 3 M.O.B., Dão, 12.5% (S) £30.00

Named for the three wine makers: Jorge Moreira, Francisco Olazabal and Jorge Seródi. The wine is made from a blend of three of the most typical Dão

varieties. This Lote 3 seeks to be an old Dão with a modern approach. It has a lightly laden color, is little alcoholic, fresh and easy to drink like the wines

of the past but has the aromatic beauty, the intensity of fruit in the mouth and the balance provided by the current viticulture and winemaking.

099 Chateau Partarrieu, Sauternes, 2016, 13.5% 37.5cl (S) £6.50 £30.00

This 150-year old property was purchased in 1993 by the previous part-owner of Chateau Suduiraut, Philippe Mercadier. The plantings consist of 95%

Sémillon and 5% Sauvignon old vines. The character of these wines is distinguished by impressive suppleness and smoothness, yet they are endowed

with the classic Barsac richness and viscocity. A totally under-the-radar Sauternes producer but what a find! Fragrant and stylish with a fresh nose

showing very good fruit. Lots of evident, classic botrytis here.
